How To Watch YouTube Videos at 720p or 1080p During Lockdown on your Mobile

As the Govt. of India has extended the third phase of lockdown till May 17, 2020, you have to compromise with 480p videos on YouTube. We all know that Govt. of India has done this to mitigate the network traffic or minimise the bandwidth. This is something a good step to bring down internet traffic where Reliance JIO provides 2G quality internet service in the name of 4G. But if you have highspeed wifi then you may not like to watch YouTube videos at 480p on your smartphone.

You can enjoy YouTube videos at 720p or 1080p on your Laptop or PC but you are forced to watch YouTube videos at up to 480p on your smartphone. Here I will share you a small trick by applying which you can watch YouTube beyond 480p in this lockdown. You can easily watch your favourite YouTube videos at 720p or 1080p on your mobile.

The idea is pretty simple. All you need to do is use a VPN to bypass the lockdown restriction. Still, here I am sharing you the step by step method for a clear view. Here I want to mention that if you hate ads on YouTube then you can try the mod version of YouTube to enjoy ad-free youtube videos.

Watch YouTube Videos at 720p or 1080p During Lockdown
  1. Close YouTube app if you are running as well as from background
  2. Go to Google Play Store and install Turbo Free VPN or Only VPN (both free)
  3. Here I am using Only VPN so open it and tap on the connect button
  4. It will take a few seconds to connect with proxy servers.
  5. Once it connected it will show like this.
  6. Now Open YouTube app and enjoy videos at 720p or 108op

This very simple as an easy method to watch at 720p or 1080p during this lockdown. Basically VPN hides your real IP and masks it with a foreign IP. So YouTube thinks you are not connected from outside India so the lockdown 480p restriction does not apply anymore. But there are limitations with this trick. One of them I have faced is you can’t use super chat or Super Emoji anymore in as YouTube live stream as the currency changes from INR to Euro.  If you are rich enough then you can try 1 EURO instead of  ₹10 INR.

Using a VPN is a very good habit while you are online. But for that case, you try reliable VPN. That makes the difference with a paid VPN from these free one. Till then be safe and stay at home.
